Okay - I know all you pros must be tired of this one, but having spent the last two hours trawling the net and coming out with several different opinions on this old chestnut, I need help. I want to plug my Technics and ~Pioneer mixer into my 12" Powerbook and record continuous mixes from vinyl. Then I'd want to add track markers and track titles and burn them to cd with my superdrive - i.e. make a professional sounding Mix CD akin to those irritatingly commercial Ministry of Sound efforts.....
I'm looking for the best quality and most user friendly options without shelling out any readies.....or at least a minimum amount. Ideally, anything that keeps an eye on peak levels etc..would be good as I have a habit of cranking it up a little once I get going.

spin doctor as part of roxio toast is the best solution . it has a function which works quite well that automates locating the track breaks .
unfortunately you can't get spin doctor on its own or find a demo . otherwise use finalvinyl and a imic . good luck david |

Many thanks for that.
I went away and had a good mooch around the Roxio website and I now have a copy of Toast winging it's way to me - it seemed to have all the functionality I was after! Cheers... |

You may want to look at Griffin Tech's Powerwave USB audio interface. It's very reliable and I believe they make an app called Final Vinyl. Other good software options include Spark ME (free version) or Bias' Peak.

We have an article still not translated in English (if there are people who can help, we can do with some
 on this subject.As most of the relevant info has been told already I may only add that an RIAA correction is mandatory, make a search on the site, it has been already covered  RIAA correctors are available for a very reasonable price, you can use also a good HiFi preamp sending to the mac as an aux for the same means.
